i recently bumped my text/pix/flix package up to the next one, then to avoid any prorated charges the customer svc rep said that she'd add the change the following day when my bill cycle would renew. i agreed and thought that my bill would simply reflect the old package's bill plus overages for that month and that i would see the charges for the new package on my next bill. not so, the new package was included on my current bill. so i called to get an explanation and the rep told me that every bill is for the following month, not the previous month for which all those minutes were used. if that's the case, why is it called a postpaid plan? and how can we be paying for the following month when all call/usage detail listed in the bill is for t...
